About TPS u should ask ur dealer. If u r going to stick with 16" then why change the tires, it makes no different. Save ur money man.

so if i wanted to go with a bigger rim, ie: 18's...as long as i stick with the same size tire, its not going to effect the speedo??

also, (keep in mind im new to the toyota world...) with my 07' LE, how do i tell which generation it is? i think from what i have read, its gen 6.

i know that might seem like a dumb question.

okay-

TPMS : This counts the rotation of each wheel and if one wheel is not in sync w/the rotation count, then it'll throw a light to aware you. Thats all.. switching rims isn't a problem.

Generation count:

Gen 3: 1993-1996
Gen 4: 1997-2001
Gen 5: 2002-2006
Gen 6: 2007- on.

Yes...your TPMS will still work. Just make sure they're installed correctly and seal with the wheel. It's done all the time though. Just tell the folks at the tire place up front so their people don't accidentally install with regular valve stems.

I replaced the OEM 215/60-16 tires with a set of 245/45-18 on my 07 LE with no problems. They are mounted on 18x8” wheels with +40mm offset. See the link below for more info. My speedometer was only affected by about 1 MPH as verified by before and after readings taken with my Nuvi 660

I'm replacing my stock 16x60x215 with 16x55x235 tires on my 07 Camry LE V6 today and was wondering if my MPH will be off?

Discount Tire says no

Any input would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

There is only 2/100 inch difference in height of those two sizes. You should see no change in speedo.
